Inspection and compliance
A rolling fire door can sit open for years before it is needed. Annual inspection and drop testing are what keep it ready.
Follow NFPA 80 and your Authority Having Jurisdiction for inspection and testing requirements.

A fail-safe release device closes the door when a 165°F fusible link melts, a smoke or heat detector trips, or the building fire alarm sends a signal. The door descends at a controlled speed and seals the opening.
The 500 Series is UL rated for 45 minutes, 1-1/2 hours and 3 hours, and 4 hours in 18-gauge. The 500i is rated up to 3 hours, and the 550 counter shutter for 45 and 90 minutes.
At minimum, a trained and certified fire door assembly technician should inspect and drop test each door every year, and after every repair or approved modification. Follow NFPA 80 and your Authority Having Jurisdiction.
The 500i adds a 24-gauge backer and mineral wool insulation rated R-4.7, for openings that need both fire protection and thermal performance.
